Our final walk into Fish Creek Park yesterday was absolutely the best one yet. We sat in a 'sit spot' to observe the landscape and sketch as many living and non-living things in our viewpoint. Students were excited to see rose hips, buffalo beans and poplar trees (they are becoming great horticulturalists).
Students went home with their pots of newly-planted sunflowers for their Mother's Day gifts...some seeds have proven to be very late to sprout, so we actually put two more seeds into the pots that have no signs of success yet. Your child knows that plants need water and sunlight once they get home! Once the plants are well established you can transfer them into a new planter or into the garden if you wish. Enjoy, and happy mother's day to all!
